Each CrewCom Radio Pack (RP) has a Profile that contains a variety of system settings that are defined as either global profile settings or user settings. An RP Profile determines the functionality of an RP’s local controls, knobs, and buttons (including Conference assignments), and allows customization for user preferences, roaming, and operating mode. For more information on modes, see
- Global Profile Settings – These settings are part of the CrewCom Configuration File and are usually assigned by a system administrator through customization in CrewWare during setup. A global profile setting is one that assigns specific operational functions to an RP’s Volume knobs, Talk buttons, and Function buttons, along with relay assignments and roaming options.
- User Settings – A user setting is one that is classified as being adjustable by the RP user and is limited to local device settings that do not alter the CrewCom Configuration File. The Profile can be used to determine these settings, but they can also be customized directly from an RP (after a Profile is loaded), the Control Unit's (CU's) menu, or CrewWare.

Viewing Profile Information from the CU
Users can view details about each Radio Pack Profile on the system from the CU LCD by accessing the CU's System Configuration menu. Because a system supports up to 64 Profiles, you can sort Profiles (alphanumerically) by Name or by Type. CrewWare is required to create or edit Profiles.
